Thermodynamical fluctuations and photo-thermal shot noise in gravitational wave antennae
V. B. Braginsky, M. L. Gorodetsky, S. P. Vyatchanin
Thermodynamical fluctuations of temperature in mirrors of gravitational wave antennae are transformed through thermal expansion coefficient into additional noise. This source of no…
Energetic Quantum Limit in Large-Scale Interferometers
Vladimir B. Braginsky, Mikhail L. Gorodetsky, Farid Ya. Khalili +1
For each optical topology of an interferometric gravitational wave detector, quantum mechanics dictates a minimum optical power (the ``energetic quantum limit'') to achieve a given…
Dual-Resonator Speed Meter for a Free Test Mass
Vladimir B. Braginsky, Mikhail L. Gorodetsky, Farid Ya. Khalili +1
A description and analysis are given of a ``speed meter'' for monitoring a classical force that acts on a test mass. This speed meter is based on two microwave resonators (``dual r…
